I say it as "Sin- yhet"

Sij-net.

I find it funny. I know I'm mispronouncing it.

sig-net.

Baby geese ftw.

I've heard strange pronounciations of 'Chocobo,' though. Co-co-boo! Cha-coh-boh! Choo-coo-bow!

And the worst pronunciation ever goes to my friend, who shall remain nameless:

Jeuno = Wayne-oh.

Re: Pronounciation?

I know I'm mis-pronouncing signet also, but I really like it as it sounds when I pronounce it as sin-yhet. Kinda has that silent g in a way.

Re: Pronounciation?

I say it sig-nant o.O

Re: Pronounciation?

I try not to pronounce too many FFXI terms out loud. None of my friends play, and they just stare at me.

Plus, I feel really silly trying to explain about going to Xarcabard (Zar-ca-bard?) via the Beacedine Glacier (Bow-ced-ine, or maybe Bow-ced-yne?) to make my way to Fei Yin (at least that one is easy) by order of Prince Pieuje (I'm not even going to try).

What about La Theine?

I pronounce it "Luh-Theen", but from NPCs, it looks like "La Thayne"

And what about Xarcabard? "Zar-kuh-bard"?

The rain in La Theine stays mainly on the Plane.

And what about Xarcabard? "Zar-kuh-bard"?

Got me. Zar-cabard maybe?

How about Pso'Xja?

[Suteru]

Re: Pronounciation?

So-Jha (kind of a soft "J") is how I pronounce it.

"The rain in La Theine falls mainly on the plains" is what got me thinking of how it is pronounced. I mean. Do the developers even know how it's pronounced?

Bostaunieux Oubliette anyone?

Re: Pronounciation?

What I wonder about is Ve'Lugannon Palace, not only that another one that I'm not certain of is Periqia, and of course the Oubliette like Suteru.
